abumblebee1, the normal procedure is to hold down the "end of cycle signal" (drain/spin)button for 3 to 5 seconds. The only other thing I could see is that the control interface has failed and has a stuck or shortened keypad. Give it a try and let us know.

Lo and Behold, holding down the End of Cycle Signal button for about 10 seconds worked for me today! Water has started to leak back into the washer after a load so as a temporary fix, I have been turning off the hot and cold water in between loads. Well, unfortunately, I started a load this morning and took off, forgetting to turn the water back on and the machine stalled mid cycle with the door locked. Thank goodness this thread popped up when I googled my washing machine problem because I was trying everything and I could not get the washer to stop whirring with no action and error codes flying! Amazing resource! Thank you!

our Kenmore Elite HE3 Washing Machine has SO MANY BUTTONS - saying SO MANY THINGS... Love it... and know Drain/Spin is easy & simple to understand... but they don't use that on these stackable twin babies!

I've sat down in front of these front loaders looking like I was enjoying myself!

@navalofficer any chance to unplug it for 15 min then plug it back in. This may reset the board. After that try the "normal procedure is to hold down the "end of cycle signal" (drain/spin)button for 3 to 5 seconds." once more.

This worked for me as a temporary fix. Next load I received a F2 error code. This is a drain pump error. Actually turned out to be a very easy fix also. Removed lower front access panel (3 screws). Removed two screws holding the pump in place (Large round, white plastic canister looking device directly in middle front with screw on cap). After removing the pump pull up and forward. Place a deep pan under the pump, unscrew the cap by hand. There will be a fair amount of water drain. My pump had coins, a pencil and a lot of lint blocking it. Removed all the material, replaced the cap, replaced the pump and front panel. Machine now working fine. Only took about 10 minutes and problem solved.
